An apparatus for estimating contact distribution to quickly estimate contact spot distribution from a contact surface image using a deep learning model based on a convolution neural network (CNN) and a method thereof are disclosed. A method for estimating contact distribution to estimate contact spot distribution between a first contact spot and a second contact spot includes inputting a contact surface image of at least one of the first contact surface and the second contact surface to a deep learning model based on a CNN and estimating contact spot distribution between the first contact surface and the second contact surface from an output of the deep learning model.
